The Side Character’s Hidden Boss!

Translator: Lonelytree

Mo Li could not help but frown when she saw Quan Yu’s uncle’s expression. His facial muscle was asymmetrical on both sides, so it meant that his crying was fake.

“Shouldn’t you be at home? How can this happen?” Quan Feng demanded, and he sounded resentful. If Quan Yu were there, his father wouldn’t have died.

“Mr. Quan, Young Master was busy. But he did have Gong Zi and Ah Zhong look after the old master. No one expected this to happen. The room was tightly locked, so we suspect this is an inside job.” Ah Si knew Quan Yu was in no mood to talk, so he spoke up for him.

“So where is Ah Zhong and Gong Zi?” Quan Feng demanded.

“Gong Zi… is found dead in the basement. Ah Zhong was ambushed, and he fainted. He has serious injuries. He hasn’t woken up yet.” Ah Si didn’t expect that his brother, whom he had chatted with the day before, would die in such a tragic way. If he found out the murderer, he would tear their skin off!

“Who have we offended lately?” Quan Feng looked at Quan Yu and then Mo Li.

Quan Yu processed the info in his mind. Then he offered the suspect of Flower Appraisal. Quan Feng gasped in shock. “Impossible! The people of Flower Appraisal have died out so many years ago, how could they…” 𝘧𝔯e𝗲𝙬ℯ𝙗𝓷o𝘷e𝗹.𝐜𝑜𝒎

They reached an impasse and Quan Feng eventually left.

“Second uncle seem to know a lot about them.” Quan Yu commented.

“Young master, second master definitely knows something. If he won’t tell us willingly, we should find a way to get him to talk.” Ah Si was desperate. He wanted to know who had killed his friends and Elder Quan. Why wouldn’t second master tell the truth?

“You noticed it, right?” Mo Li turned to Quan Yu. Quan Feng acted too strangely. He did not look too sad. If anything, he seemed to come to confirm if Elder Quan was really dead.

Quan Yu didn’t say a word. He and Mo Li exchanged a glance. They both knew that there were still many hidden dangers. However, Quan Yu would never forgive these people!

As Ah Si was about to leave, Mo Li stopped him. “Wait. I’ve inspected Gong Zi’s body too. He has no outside wound, but his pupils were enlarged. He was surprised by something before he died.” Then Mo Li took out a garnet. “I found this inside Gong Zi’s body. What does it mean?”

The garnet was already broken, and Mo Li kept it inside a bag. Ah Si asked with a trembling voice, “Where did you find this?”

“Gong Zi’s throat and what was left of his mouth.” Mo Li answered. Ah Si understood what she meant and could not help but clench his fists. 𝑓𝗿𝐞𝘦𝘄ｅ𝘣n𝘰𝘷eƖ.c𝘰𝗺

“Ah Si, go and investigate the origin of this garnet. I want to know who owns it last.” Quan Yu shifted uncomfortably. He was still not used to his much stronger heart. He thought the surgery would be difficult, but Mo Li had dealt with it easily.

Half a day later, Ah Si returned with a report but he looked weirdly dazed.

“Tell me.”

Ah Si sighed. “The garnet was purchased to be embedded onto a staff.”

Mo Li turned to Quan Yu. “Didn’t your second uncle come with a staff that day?”

“But… he was carrying a staff we hadn’t seen before.”

Quan Yu arranged everything. He found people to reconstruct the voices on the final phone recording of his grandfather. Through vocal identification, the assailant was proven to be Quan Feng. Quan Yu then had his people collect the evidence. Quan Feng was captured and he sold out Ah Zhong. From Ah Zhong, Quan Yu managed to find out the Flower Appraisal App. Quan Yu worked together with the Lin Family and Mo Family to take down Flower Appraisal. Flower Appraisal lost a lot, and Han Xu had no choice but to leave the country. But he had a hard time escaping from Interpol.

Quan Li sat in his wheelchair. Although he felt very tired, he did not feel as powerless as before.

“You still have to take good care of your body while you’re recovering.”Mo Li sat beside him, and Quan Li gently held her hand.. They still had a long way to go.
